Drilling Cannon Super Bar

[gonger]

Hello,

 

i recently received my 60 Inch Cannon Super bar. Now i am unsure wehre to drill the holes for the Mill. 

 

In wich hole would you drill? I think 2 would be the best, but not sure if it is a good Idea for the nose of the bar...

 

I also marked the hole for the auxilery oiler kit. This one should be ok, right?

Stoooooop!

Before you drill a very expensive mistake.
Definitely not 1 or 2.

If you drill 1 or 2 you will have to do that every time you change a sprocket nose .

This wouldn't be a problem to me.

 

Just want to know if there are any complications when drilling trough the nose of the bar.

Where did you get the bar from?
What mill do you have?

I've bought it here, since i am from Germany:

Just have a China Mill. I increased the thickness of the top clamping mechanism and thread bolded it.

Ok,
Can you post some photos of your mill?
If it's a Chinese one, you shouldn't need to drill the bar.

Going to post some pics when i am in my workshop.

 

Yeah it was designed for clamping. But this takes just too much time for chain changing. 

I stopped the time and were by 5 minutes for my 107cm GB bar.

 

In my opinion the time wich i spend at the milling place is really valuable. 

My goal is to slab one whole tree , load it up to the trailer and store it in my workshop 1. Floor in just a day.

I think drilling in no1 will be ok just put some big strong washers on both sides.
